Is there money to be earned online without cost?

As you said the survey sites are most hopeless sites to visit. But there are many sites where there are no upfront fees, but earnings are slow. Even mylot is a promopt site which regularly pays but it is slow process.

You might want to consider marketing pond. They have more than 30 programs to earn money and they are all free. You can pick and choose the ones that suits you. http://www.marketingpond.com/p.cgi/10504/

There are ways. But it costs time, many legit paid forums and you could find forums which offer "paid membership" meaning they pay you for keeping them alive. Some day it's probably an area I'll need to look into but that's even if I'm still doing what I am then :) ~Joey

I have been burnt on line a few times. I have a few good honest paying sites that cost you nothing and has a simple sign up. Here it is... http://adbux.org/?r=Loumcln I also sign up for one that nomally I wouldn't but the review are excellent on this site. It cost 10 dollars to sign up but you can make that money back in a few days depending on how much time you have to spend on the net. If you want the address let me know.
